Don't live in a beach city? Or maybe you do live in a beach city but there's no where around where they allow nude sun bathing (oh we're such conservatists here in the US)? X-Nudism.com calls itself "a true world class nude beach site" and the "best ...ism in the net". Inside you'll find over 20,000+ images and 125+ short video clips of sexy nude party girls living it up on sandy beaches all over the world. From the looks of the member’s area you can expect daily updates and mostly good quality content put together on a slightly rough site design for $29.95 per month.
Your content here is broken down into categories: "candid", "beach", "public", "exclusive", and the "hot" stuff (mainly light masturbation and toy play if you’re lucky). While there are links to the main menu in frames at the top of the page, there's no easy way that I am finding to get back to the main member's homepage. And while most of the content here is sandy beach type footage, there is also quite a bit of public nudity and posed indoor/outdoor scenes. Much of the content is good quality here, though the images are usually average in size but there is also quite a bit of grainy, screen-capture type images to be found, especially if you're looking at the "candid" photos, with the "hot pics" normally having the best quality, full-screen images. "Exclusive" content here is pretty good as well but I wouldn't get your hopes up for much of anything other than a little bit of nudity here; maybe a little beach play, building sand castles, eating lunch, sitting in the sad, etc. Beware, there's also the random penis shot in there as well; apparently it's not just nude women running around these beaches! My problem with this site is that it all just feels so very random that even the attempt at putting things into categories here doesn't do much good. Not only is the quality random but so are the locations of the shoots. It would just be nice to be able to have a description or location of some of these shoots. Even if you have to make it up, damnit! Just gives us an idea of what's going on here, where we should be planning our next vacation!
Videos are solely for the beach, candid, hot, and video shots. There's not a whole lot of consistency here as some of the videos stream imbedded in your browser window and are nice quality (DivX), though they will likely be chopping depending on your Internet connection speed. Other videos will open up in your media browser and the quality all just depends. While browsing around I found some other types of content here too, like girls masturbating, showering, using toys, and playing in the snow?! There were also quite a few broken links and even one set (of images) that took me to a completely different website. At this point I'm a little bit confused on what to think of the content here. Of course, most of it is beach stuff/out door/nude in public type content but it's really hard to get an overall feel for the site, let alone recommend it to users at $29.95 per month. Overall the inconsistency of the content itself as well as the quality was probably the biggest downfall for me here. The site design could be improved, making browsing the content much easier and the whole site experience that much more pleasurable. I like the idea, I even like much of the content, but I can't say I'm sold; maybe if the site were $10 bucks cheaper I might join, then again, I like a little more spice to my porn;).

Review: 07-13-09 |
More than 4 years have passed since we initially reviewed X Nudism, so I'm interested to see what all has changed. The tour looks really clean design-wise, and as I go back to read my initial review, I am reminded that I had some problems with the lack of navigational features/design in the member's area. Unfortunately I have those same complaints now. Photos and videos are separated, but it looks like they've even done away with the categories. If this is version 2.0, I'm not impressed. And like before, there are no content descriptions to go off of. A Flash version has been added so users can easily stream the videos, and the DivX download option also remains. In terms of quality however, everything looks fantastic. Images are mostly super large in size (it varies from set to set), and the DivX download is worth the wait if you want to save these clips to your computer. Yes, consistency is still a bit of an issue, but I'm happy with the overall quality based on the content I saw. Price remains at $29.95 per month and consistent updates are added to keep the archive growing. I just wish it were much easier to get around. Hopefully it won't be another 4 years until we come back, but for now I still have mixed feelings overall.
Score increased from 70.6 to 75.5.
